Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the performance of tall fescue cultivars in six turf trials, focusing on turf quality, disease resistance, and color. States that "improvements in color, density, and leaf texture have already made tall fescue a viable option for many turfgrass managers." Also states that "the major weakness of tall fescue is susceptibility to brown patch." |
